What are the consequences for those who kill lions?

I'm a (mostly) peaceful cat. But when I see videos like this my heart goes up in flames and I want to shoot these people. Same with smugglers who cut beautiful tigers in half. Or anyone who'd kill a Snow Leopard to make a fancy rug. Regardless of how fierce they are, these cats are essentially defenseless against guns - these people must be stopped. What am I doing making art and videos to increase understanding when I could be hunting cat killers?​

Posted by Kim: Bunny do you think your computer stopped working because it wanted us to go and fight people who kill big cats?

Posted by Pinky: Kim, Bunny - You can't stop all the bad people who want to kill cats by killing them with guns. You just can't. You might be able to kill some of them but there will always be more and eventually one of them will kill you too. What about trying to dismantle the system that produces lion-killing as a desirable and available commodity?

Posted by Bunny: Pinky - if someone showed up here and was aiming to shoot you, wouldn't you want me to shoot them first?

Posted by Pinky: I don't want to die, but the answer is still no.

Posted by Bunny: Well that's where you and I are different then.

Posted by Kim: I agree with Bunny. Because she is defending you who doesn't have a way to defend yourself.

Posted by Bunny: So. Are we going?​?
